Today is the last full day that George W Bush spent in the White House as President he telephoned current and former world leaders from Oval Office.
Also in his last full day as President he commuted the sentences of two former US border guards facing more than 10 years in prison for shooting a Mexican drug smuggler.
Secretary of Defense Roberts Gates will will sit out Barack Obama's inauguration at an undisclosed location as the "designated successor" in the event of a catastrophe, the White House announced Monday.
Pray for President Bush - Day 3050.
Enjoy Sanity Island on the President's last full day in office
Thanks for the info and prayers that his back will soon heal
“My heartaches and troubles are just up and gone
“The moment that you come in view
“And with your hand in mine dear, I could dance on and on,
“I could waltz across Texas with you....”
“Bushie, hush.”
I think I’ve been in shock since November 4. Now I am going into mourning.
I pray mercy on all of us, as we have NO IDEA who this man—who is to be sworn-in tomorrow as the next President of the United States—is! Seriously, WHO is this man?
I had to come over here for some sanity, as I just perused the Ramos & Campean thread and am disgusted.
Godspeed, President Bush. You are a man of honor and integrity who didn’t deserve the disrespect and animosity that has been piled on you, relentlessly. Enjoy your retirement with your family. And thank you. Thank you for keeping my family safe from the savages that seek to destroy us.
You will be missed, Mr. President. :^( * tears *
snugs: THANK YOU for this amazing DOSE . . . I can’t believe it’s almost over!

Will do as soon as life settles down a bit and I have completed the outstanding toasters
You KNOW that must have happened somewhere...! LOL!
I totally agree. I think half of the tears I've been crying since Thursday are out of fear for the future.
I hear you. My shock is not over, it took me forever to let 41 go.
LUV W: You are MUCH too kind! I REALLY enjoyed our time together — you are one amazing lady! [BTW: I remembered what it was I wanted to share with you: Shuttles will be available tomorrow at the Greater Ideal Baptist Church and Midland High School (the latter after 2:30 PM)]

JFC: Luv W and I will be there as well — can’t wait!!
I’m actually less scared about foreign policy than I am for domestic! That bill about repealing the 22nd amendment threw me for a loop! President Chavez Obama! Wow!
Here is a thread I think everyone should read:

He redeemed himself with me when he commuted the sentances of Compean and Ramos!!! I would have been so dissappointed if he left them to rot in prison.
That’s wonderful news, snugs. Thank you in advance.
...and thank you for the updates on your father’s health. i’ve been praying for him. i’ve also been keeping you in prayer because as the care giver there’s a level of stress experienced that cannot be compared. hugs.
Now there’s a guy I’d LOVE to go riding with! ;-)
Did before, but Thanks for putting that on this thread.
First Lady Laura Bush
And what a lady she is. I will miss her.
VP Cheney ~ an equally amazing man. I will miss him so much.
Oh I hear ya! It’s a really scary time.
